Encodes a AP2 domain transcription factor that can repress flowering. SMZ and its paralogous gene, SNARCHZAPFEN (SNZ), share a signature with partial complementarity to the miR172 microRNA, whose precursor is induced upon flowering.
Computational Description
SCHLAFMUTZE (SMZ); CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: DNA-binding, integrase-type (InterPro:IPR016177), Pathogenesis-related transcriptional factor/ERF, DNA-binding (InterPro:IPR001471); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: Integrase-type DNA-binding superfamily protein (TAIR:AT2G39250.1); Has 4786 Blast hits to 4207 proteins in 234 species: Archae - 0; Bacteria - 32; Metazoa - 0; Fungi - 0; Plants - 4687; Viruses - 15; Other Eukaryotes - 52 (source: NCBI BLink).
Encodes a protein of unknown function that is involved in cortical microtubule organization. Mutants exhibit abnormal cell growth and patterns of division. TON1A can functionally complement TON1B and their roles appear to be redundant in plants. Encodes a novel protein that is similar to human FOP and OFD1 centrosomal proteins. Localizes to the preprophase band, cytoplasm and cell cortex where it is probably associated with the cortical cytoskeleton. TON1A associates with plant centrins CEN1 and CEN2.
